We went camping over the 24th of July weekend with Tony's family in the Uinta mountains! It has been a tradition in his family for years since he was a kid. It is so beautiful up there! We went to a B-day party for Avery's cousin Grace who turned 4 on the 24th! One night we had a international dutch oven party and the kids took turns hitting a pinata. The last night we were there we had a dutch oven cook off. Yummy! This is the first year I bought a dutch oven and cooked 3 times in it with the assistance of my mother-in-law. We did a lot of playing in the river that was very close to our camp site. Avery loves to swim but I think the water was a little too cold for her. We also did a lot of sitting around the camp fire, playing games, and just kicked it. It was so nice to get away from the world! It's even nicer to come home to a warm shower though!

Looks like fun! I miss you... we really need to get together soon. All of this with Ali has really encouraged me to be with family and friends, and it's been way to long since we've been able to hang out! Love you!
